Mugs Final & Online Q&A Tonight

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

The final list of mug orders is here and I am going to order tomorrow morning. Have a look down below - if you are still not on it, please contact me immediately.

And in three hours (22:00 GMT +1) the Ordo Phoenicis Ascendentis Q&A chat is going to start - just as a reminder.

The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

One of my favorite western movies of all times. Doesn’t get much better than that (well, Silverado wasn’t bad either). It ran on TV a few nights back and it always makes for a good title. Now i just have to find topics to fill the title.

The Good

That’s pretty easy. I was already very proud of the Warlord 4E base set, which turned out quite well in my opinion. To produce an expansion was much more a challenge. With the base set I knew the cards, it was more or less putting them together right and adding a few new ones as spice.

You like Tactics?

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

So the hidden reveal of Set’rokh made you think about her?

Here’s something for you.

Valhala’s Shout

Freedom Fighter

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

I am supposed to like all the Warlords in a set. But these are not my children (those I all like ;-)). So I am allowed to play favorites. And this is definitely one of my personal top three Warlords I look forward to play:

Talin Tzin

“The years of war made us hard and lean. Robert has sent me here, because he knows that I can survive. That the Elves suddenly show up here only makes it better.”

The Mysterious 7th Mug

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

The order phase for mugs ends today - I am in the process of putting together all the orders I have received.

This, btw, is the graphics for the  mysterious 7th mug that hasn’t been produced before:

The Mercenary Mug

You can still order today.

Missing The Chosen?

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

So far I have shown something of everything, except The Chosen. Hmm. TCGplayer.com was supposed to preview some exclusives and I did send those to them (including the The Chosen Warlord). So far they haven’t appeared.

So I’ll compromise.

Here’s a Deverenian who ran into some really bad luck.

Warlord #2

You have voted, and here is the second Warlord.

Raclesis - Elf Warlord

Winter Campaign is ready to start in the US

Wednesday, November 26th, 2008

I have been pleasantly surprised by the number and quality of proposals I have received from US tournament organizers. For this reason we have decided to a) update the number of Winter Campaign events in the US from four to six and b) to slightly modify the main prize.

The 2008/2009 Winter Campaign dates and locations for the United States are:

  • December 13th, Miami, Florida
  • January 10th, Bayonne, New Jersey
  • January 17th, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
  • January 24th, Medford, Oregon
  • February 14th, Los Angeles California
  • February 28th, Mattoon, Illinois

Warlord Winter Campaign Locations

I am very pleased with how these tournaments cover our Warlord communities as well as I could have hoped for. Further details will be divulged in the near futures and all TOs are asked to put up event websites where you can find more information about the events, traveling, hotels, etc.

Since with nine events world-wide the amount of heroes could seriously unbalance the environment, the main prize is modified as such:

“The winner of tournament gains a Hero card for his faction. The card will identify him/her as a Winter Campaign Hero. If the faction has already gained two Hero cards previously, the following cards will be Hero-related action or item cards that favor the winner’s faction.”

Lastly - if you need serious transportation to the events, you might want to try some close-air-ranged private emergency transport:

Mugs and Shattered Empires Pre-Order phase ends Friday

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Just as a reminder: On Friday I will assemble the KoHIT Mugs orders and have them produced. There will be no chance to order them after November 27th!

Also on the day after (November 28th) the pre-order phase for Warlord: Shattered Empires will end. You will of course be able to order it afterwards, but this is you only chance to get the promo Daemons Fors and Phraistos.

Now for our daily previews, something elemental…
